simpletest 0.2

Simple Library regression testing tool

Overview

simpletest checks whether a test package exist for each of the packages to be tested. For each of those, the package is tested and its test results are displayed together with per-test-case information as directed by the -v flag. Finally, the statistics of all tested packages and test-case results are displayed.

simpletest is based on the testing framework provided by the SimpleTest package, and does not require other Simple Library packages so as to keep the number of dependences to a minimum in order to have a testing environment as robust as possible.

simpletest can be used for testing packages other than those of the Simple Library provided that the package test-cases are exposed when requiring the package named package-test where package is the name of the package to test. Check Simple Library file structure to see how the Simple Library accomplishes this.
